This was once a peaceful and tranquil town, but now, due to the arrival of the demon Deliora, it has been completely reduced to ruins.
All the villagers fled in terror. Broken walls and flames raged in the night sky, reflecting endless fear and despair.
A little boy ran up behind Deliora, watching the giant demon wreak havoc on the village with intense hatred in his eyes.
This demon destroyed his hometown and killed his parents; today he will seek revenge.
He slammed his right fist into his left palm, and a blue-patterned magic circle unfolded: "Ice-Shaping Magic, Ice Lance!"
boom!
Several streaks of icy light shot through the air and slammed into Deliora's back, instantly covering him in ice.
However, his magic was too weak, and the ice he formed was too fragile. It was shattered by Deliora in less than a second.
roar!
Deliora roared, and the terrifying sound wave stirred the flames, knocking Little Gray to the ground.
"hateful!"
Little Gray quickly got up, his big eyes showing anger and fear, and he couldn't help but wonder if he could really defeat this monster.
Before he could think any further, Deliora was already striding heavily toward him. A mere human child was not worth casting a spell on; he could crush him with a single toe.
Just then, a short-haired woman rushed in front of him and reached out to shield Little Gray behind her.
"Ulu? What brings you here?"
When Little Grey left, he told Ullu that he would never learn magic from someone like her again. He said such hurtful things, so why did you come to save him?
"Me too!"
A silver-haired child jumped out from behind Ulu, a smile on his face.
"Leon, you guys…" Little Grey's eyes filled with tears, his heart overflowing with emotion.
But he still forced himself to say, "I'll take my own revenge. You all need to leave!"
Ulu looked at the terrifying demon approaching, her expression more solemn than ever before: "Now is not the time to talk about these things. The demon's magic is extraordinary. Be careful."
"Ice Design - Rose Garden!"
She cast a spell, and a life-size blue magic circle unfolded beside her. A beam of ice shot out, freezing the earth and extending all the way to Deliora's head, freezing it into an ice flower.
Before she could even catch her breath, Deliora shattered the ice and laughed loudly, "Mere human magic, you think you can fight against demons?"
A burst of green roar erupted, instantly shattering all the ice.
Ulu's expression changed slightly. An ice pillar rose up from beneath his feet, blasting him away. A green beam of light grazed his body, shattering all the buildings along the way and turning them into a sea of fire.
"So fast!!!"
Cold sweat beaded on her forehead. If she hadn't dodged in time, she would have been seriously injured. This monster was much stronger than she had imagined.
Little Gray and Little Leon had no time to react and were thrown back by the terrifying aftershock.
Seeing the intense fear on Little Gray's face as he lay on the ground, Ulu said urgently, "What are you two standing there for? Get out of here! This is not a battle you can participate in."
Little Gray looked up at the rampaging Deliora, his eyes filled with unease and despair. Faced with this terrifying monster, he was beginning to lose even the courage to fight back.
no!
How could I be afraid!
Looking at Gray's stubborn expression, Ulu felt helpless. This silly child, there was no need to be in such a hurry to take revenge. It wouldn't be too late to take revenge when he had the power to fight back.
She sighed and walked towards Deliora: "Grey, as your teacher, I'll help you one last time. Don't be so impulsive in the future."
Little Grey saw the resolve to die in Ulu, and suddenly became panicked and helpless, his face covered with tears: "Don't go, Ulu, don't go! I won't seek revenge anymore, come back!"
"It's alright. As a human mage, even without any grudge, I wouldn't let this troublesome demon get away with it. And it's not just for you!"
Ulu knew that if she didn't explain, her death would likely cause Grey a great deal of guilt, and he might even live a life of pain and regret, just like she herself.
However, she was indeed doing it for Gray, daring to harm his most beloved disciple. Even if it was a demon, she was willing to risk her life.
Little Leon's face showed unease, and he couldn't help but tremble as he said, "Ulu, you are the strongest mage, you can definitely defeat the demon!"
"I am not the strongest mage, and perhaps invincibility itself does not exist."
Ulu chuckled and said, "Leon, one day you must go out and see the world. You'll find that the world is much bigger than you imagine."
Little Leon's eyes widened, and he retorted loudly, "Impossible, Ulu must be the strongest."
"Let me defeat that monster!"
He quickly passed Ulu and ran ahead, stopping not far from Deliora. He crossed his arms in front of him, and a huge ice magic circle unfolded beneath his feet, with terrifying cold rising up.
When Ulu saw Leon's first move, her expression changed drastically: "Stop!"
With a sharp shout, she froze Leon instantly. The person who uses this magic will also be frozen in ice forever, and she absolutely did not want Leon to use this move.
"Let me do it!" she sighed softly, then stepped forward.
Little Gray's heart pounded, and he screamed frantically, "Ulu, no! Don't go!"
However, Wu Lu would not stop. Now that things had come to this point, she was determined to completely rid her apprentice of the nightmare.
"That despicable demon has wreaked havoc on humanity for so long, it's time to stop!"
Ulu revealed a cold smile, and in an instant, six huge ice magic circles surrounded Deliora, spreading terrifying cold air.
"Absolute Freeze!"
With a roar, the ice magic circle exploded, and the entire space was covered in white light, making it impossible to see anything.
When the cold mist dissipated, Deliora had been completely turned into an ice sculpture, and Ulu's body was gradually frozen and became ethereal.
She looked at Grey, who was weeping not far away, and said gently, "Grey, your nightmare is over. I will turn into ice and be frozen here forever."
"Don't tell Leon that I'm the ice block, or he'll waste his whole life trying to break the spell. You two have a brighter future ahead of you!"
"My journey on earth has come to an end. Now I'm going to another world to be with my daughter..."
She seemed to see her daughter running towards her, happily calling out "Mommy," and tears welled up in her eyes involuntarily: "I owe her so much..."
The last sound faded away, and Ulu disappeared, leaving behind only a huge, transparent block of ice.
Little Gray was already kneeling on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably, his whole body enveloped in endless pain and regret.
If it weren't for him, Ulu wouldn't have died!
He's the one who deserves to die!
Why!
Why did you take away all his beloved family members?
Why!
Just as he was crying his heart out, a giant eye suddenly opened in the sky, spanning tens of thousands of meters, like the eye of heaven, looking down on the human world.
The surviving villagers collapsed to the ground in terror. What was that?
The eyes of heaven?
Little Gray choked up, staring blankly at those huge eyes, as if a voice was ringing in his ears.
"Perfect timing!"
